Hello al! I would like to install pop-outs on my '73 fastback. I have the
complete assemblies but have no idea how they mount up behind the doors.
The back side of my car, rear, has three holes to mount up the pop out hinge,
I cannot find anything on the fixed hinge side. Do I need to weld in a new
"C" pillar? Does anyone have any photos or suggestions? Also does anyone
have a set of "C" pillars they would be willing to sell? Thanks Doug '73

Have a look at this pic from Phil's 71 Fastback.

He had ISP rebuild the car. For 71 (Phil's car) VW eliminated the anchor
plates (with tapped holes) for the latch of the pop outs (what your 73 IS
missing). Remember, Fastbacks got "bending glass", and you don't need anything
special other than some latch anchor plates, and the correct window seals
(with metal frame) to install them.
I hope this helps.
